The stories in the
Archives are taken from various sources, including the
following newspapers:

The
Straits Echo / The National Echo
The Star
The New Straits Times

The
quality of some photographs in the newspapers were
unfortunately bad, especially those reproduced from the
defunct The Straits Echo. Although attempts have been
made to improve on the picture quality, the results have
not been very encouraging. Nevertheless, they are still
of great historical value.

The Penang
Chess Association appreciates the invaluable
contributions from the extensive collection of Mr Quah
Seng Sun to these Archives. The contribution of Mr Goh
Yoon Wah is also acknowledged.
